it is such an experience watching tawog as a kid and seeing that one episode with the ice cream cone girl writing fic abt all the other characters not thinking too hard about it. and then watching my sister watch that clip and recognizing everything the girl is saying. like oh my fucking god i get her now i literally became her what the fuckkkkk

[lazaruspiss]

anyways i recently found out that i think a few days ago at this point someone added onto one of my posts but i didnt see bc i have them blocked lmao

[vanlegion]

I think at this point I have to pretty much regard season 19 as the truest form of 'Crack Taken Seriously' which. . . huwa, I could do (but damn it would be a struggle...)

But only if you believe in the narrative *NOT* shown.

There's an After for these guys. But I think that's kind of up to us? (. . . Yeah I'm already writing the AFTER fic. Fuck me.) So unless some miracle happens and either the IP gets bought up and the crew gets to do some little shorts like what the Crwby is doing ... Or Geoff and Gus ever pull off what Alexander Siddig and Andrew Robinson did for the Star Trek DS9 Bashir/Garak community. I guess we just make our own canon at this point.

[whollyjoly]

crying screaming throwing up yeet me into the fucking SUN as you take a blender to my balls i cant fucking believe it holy SHIT

*coughs into mic* anyways so here's how bucktommy can still win....

warning there is alot of text

> nightmare (they/it)

DESI NIGHTMARE!!!! (this is blatant self projection.)

short. but they always manipulate their height when they're outside of their gang because they hate being short.

chubby because its ass is not used to actual food, and they have a really slow metabolism when it isnt negativity. and now that horrors "forcing" it to eat, they gain weight. fast.

intersex. not sure why i think this but they don't really have a sex, so. erm.

^ adding onto that their fluid in their expression. sometimes masc, sometimes fem, sometimes andro.

leaning korean and thai mix for him. because i need to see more mixed characters.

always dusty. mostly because he doesn't shower and smells like ASS, but also because they gotta live up to their name somehow.

TRANS MASC. dont care if you say its wrong. EVERYONE IS TRANS. (excluding horror and blue. allies!)

aroace spec 100%. most sanses are, but him in particular. would rather die than do any of the sappy bs. but wouldd love to have a partner. or maybe 3. wink wink.

"2 shorter than killer but gaslights killer into thinking he's taller

doesn't wear papyrus' scarf, but keeps it in his sleeve.

tall and bulky. after a lonnggg famine, horror developed an ED. where they stress eat until he's physically ill, or feeling less stressed.

doesn't need the bandages on his face, bur keeps them there because he hates the scar

little big bottom teeth. its something he developed due to the food conditions in HT snowdin.

as much as it happens, horror HATES having blood on him, so he wears an apron underneath his clothes and does the laundry often.

PROSTHETIC LEG!!!! it got stuck in a bear trap when he was in his old au, and alphys didnt really know what else to do. its not the best thing, but its reliable. killer likes to put stickers on it.

acespec because like look at me. he can barely feel. i just think he'd love the idea of being in a relationship, and desperately want one. but know he cant be in one.

scars galore holy shit. is always somehow simultaneously sloppy and precise with his knifework. him and nightmare have a small rivalry to see who can get the most.

[windybluebelles]

One part of me is sad that none of my friends are really into DC

Another part of me is so glad that I don’t have to explain that, out of the hundreds of BatMan ships, I chose BatArrow as my OTP.

Do you know how fucking embarrassing that is?

“Oh I like BatCat- I like BruTalia- I like SuperBat- MuMeMuuuu- hey Bluebelle, what’s your favourite Batman ship?-“

AND ITS A FUCKING KNOCK OFF ROBIN HOOD SON OF A BITCH

It’s one thing for that to be public information on the internet that only strangers (and my Sonic Hyperfixated girlfriend ig) can judge me for, it’s an entirely different thing to say that to an actual comic book fan.

I’d get laughed out of the losers club and chucked into the bin.

Gets even worse when I have to be like-

“👉👈🥺 imagine if he was dating Dinah toooo, and they all loved eachother and shit”

Like ew

Fandom Shipping Terminology 101: ACOTAR edition

Hi! So I decided to put a little resource together for the ACOTAR fandom. Since many people join the SJM/ACOTAR fandom and have never been in fandom before, they encounter a lot of fandom terminology that they are not quite sure what it means or have seen others use it incorrectly so they get a false impression of the meaning of the word. So I put this together, including examples from the fandom, so that people can use it as a reference to learn more about what these terms mean and when they're appropriate to use. This list is focused on words related to shipping.

Tldr definitions (note: these are definitions that I wrote based on my own experiences/research on fanlore. These are always up for interpretation and meaning and nuance change over time and depend on fandom context)

Canon ship - a relationship where the characters have romantic interactions in canon

Fanon ship - a relationship where in canon the characters are platonic but the fandom has accepted as a ship with romantic undertones, canonical potential, or has become so popular within a fandom it's has surpassed the need/desire for canon

Crackship - a pairing of two characters where the idea of them together is strange or funny depending on the circumstances. Often in these ships, the characters have little or even no interactions in canon

Rare pair - agnostic to fanon or canon status. A rare pair simply means the fandom does not make a lot of fan content for it.

End-game - This is a canon ship that is together by the end of a series.

Slash ship - Fanon ships that feature queer relationships. M/M usually takes on the term slash and F/F has the term femslash.

OTP - Stands for One True Pair. This is a ship that a shipper considers to be the most important one that they love in a fandom.

NOTP - anti-OTP, or a ship that a shipper detests/is squicked out by

Multishipping - the act of shipping a character with multiple other characters.

For more context and thorough examples read more under the cut 

First, what the heck is a ship?

The origins of shipping and becoming obsessed with fictional relationships predate our modern understanding of fandom. Modern fandom roots can be traced as early as Star Trek: The Original Series. But the terminology of calling a couple you like a ship or the act of obsessing over fictional (and sometimes non fictional) couples "shipping" has its origins in the X-Files fandom. While ACOTAR is a romance, many fandoms do not have romance as a central element of its plot, and yet, shippers find a way. That's exactly what happened for the fans of Mulder/Scully. Those who wanted them to be in a romantic relationship were called "relationshippers" which then got shortened to "shippers". The verb "to ship" would appear later from this origin.

The way to think about "what is a ship" though is really based on do people think up romantic scenarios with these two characters? If yes, then you have a ship. And in ACOTAR, oh baby, are there MANY, MANY SHIPS.

Canon vs. Fanon ships

Where does a canon ship end and a fanon one begin? Now that, my friends, is not as clear cut as you might think.

I think this discussion is very important for the ACOTAR fandom because of the state of the ship war currently. Often, there is back and forth about which ship is canon or fanon (and *eye twitch* people throwing around crackship as a derogatory term to de-legitimize a ship which makes me wanna punch shit).

I'm gonna burst everyone's bubbles and say, I personally think Elriel, Elucien, and Gwynriel are all CANON ships.

Why? Well, that's the part that is up for interpretations my friends. What is deemed canonical romantic interactions? That is where a lot of lines can become blurry and if you have ever shipped a fanon ship before - you KNOW what I mean by that. Is it a charged glance? A caress of a hand that lingered too long? Is it a shared kiss? Or do the characters have to explicitly declare "I'm yours and you're mine"?

I've shipped a lot of kinds of ships. Canon. Fanon. Canon that had its end-game blown up. You name it, I've shipped it. And to me, a canon ship is anytime the writer of the canon is putting characters in a romantic situation, regardless if they end up together or not by the end of the series. If they wanted you to feel butterflies and think "could they?", and you felt butterflies, well my friends, you're responding to canon romance. And we've seen evidence of all three ships having those moments.

But, what does that mean for fanon ships? I have shipped a fanon couple where I got butterflies from their canonical scenes together. I've read into their moments and thought "wow, that was romantically charged". I think this is where the lines of canon and fanon are blurred. Because what this comes down to is, did the author intend this? Or am I seeing more into an interaction because I like it? Most fanon ships do hinge a lot of their interest in said ship because of what happens in canon. But, often times, the authors of said content are not necessarily wanting you to take away from their writing that these two characters are interested in each other romantically. You just can't help it. You see it. You see the potential, and you want it to go there so you see more of it the more you look.

Sometimes fanon ships are very clear that the canon is not even hinting at these two characters together romantically. And that is perfectly fine. To me, a fanon ship is a ship that has become so ingrained in the fandom community that the fandom thinks of these two together romantically. That it doesn't really matter anymore what the canon says or doesn't. The fandom has created this relationship and it lives and breathes within what the fandom builds for it. Azris is a perfect example of a fanon ship in ACOTAR. The canon interactions between Azriel and Eris are sparse and platonic in nature, yet the fandom itself has created a whole fanon around them with a large enough community that as soon as you enter the ACOTAR fandom, you immediately know this ship exists.

Rare pairs and Crackships

These two terms are often used interchangeably as if they are synonyms. Now, a rare pair can be a crackship but not all rare ships are crackships and vice versa.

Generally, a rare pair is devoid of canon or fanon connotations. A rare pair is a ship that receives little attention from fans and has few associated fanworks. So, a rare pair could be a fanon couple that few people think about romantically. For example, Emerie and Gwyn have a lot of interactions in canon. I would not think shipping them together to be a crackship because I mean, they're friends, they like each other, they read smut together. There are a lot of scenarios one could imagine them falling in love. But they have a whopping 12 fanfics under their tag in AO3. Therefore, they are a rare pair but not necessarily a crackship.

A rare pair can also be a canon ship. For example, Thesan and his unnamed lover are canon. However, when you look up their relationship tag on AO3, there are 23 works and most do not appear to be focused on them.

I also have seen people use rare pair for very popular ships (like Azris) when they mean fanon. Again, rare pair is really an indication of "how much fan content can you find for this" not necessarily are they canon.

Crackships really were birthed from the intention of putting two characters together "4 da lulz" to bring back early 2000s internet lingo. Crack shipping is usually a pairing that the idea of them together is a little absurd but also fun. Beron/Tamlin is a quintessential crackship example, especially why it came to be (but we will avoid getting into all the origins of that). There is no real reason to think Beron or Tamlin would ever have a romantic interaction and thinking about it makes you laugh. Crackships can sometimes turn into fanon ships. This is another example where the lines do get blurry. But really, crackshipping is about intention and the use of absurdism within fan creation.

I also want to say, often what I see in the Elucien v. Elriel and Elriel v. Gwynriel ships wars is the use of crackship in a derogatory way, and thinking that if one of these ships does not become end-game, therefore, it proves the other was a crackship. Simply put - no. That's not how it works.

End-game

Related to the above point, I think often where the ACOTAR ship wars really derail themselves, is conflating fanon/canon/endgame with each other. I don't see people often using the term end-game, when really, it would help so much with the judgmental and strange ship policing that this fandom loves to do. Specifically, this fandom has a hard time talking about the value within shipping fanon, or shipping the blurriness between fanon and canon for any characters that do not have end-game potential. ACOTAR is not a complete series. Therefore, in a strict definition, no couples are end-game. However, given the genre, there are several couples who are clearly going to be end-game. And really, what I think the ship war community needs in their discourse, is to start using the term end-game when they want to discuss the outcome of Elucien, Elriel, or Gwynriel having a canonical Happily Ever After. The reason being is that you can use end-game, and not insult another ship. End-game is simply a fact. There is no hierarchy involved in what ship is best or not. Because ships can be beloved whether they're canon or fanon or canon who did not end up together. And they all can have very valid reasons why people ship them despite not achieving end-game.

I also urge the ACOTAR fandom to realize that end-game is not the end of YOUR experience of your ship. Your ship lives on despite what the canon may or may not give you. Even if you ship a canon ship that does not achieve end-game, you can create those fanon end-games for yourself. Many popular ships end up being popular because of the effect of that ship not achieving end-game. And while I am using the prime-ship war as examples within this post, I've seen other microshipwars popping up within the fandom as well. So, I'm not trying to pick on this specific set of conflicts, it's just the one I see most prominently.

OTP vs NOTP

I think the ACOTAR fandom could also really benefit from adopting this terminology.

The point of declaring OTPs and NOTPs is a way for you to signal to others in your fandom, "This is how much I care about this ship. Whether I love it it or hate it. Tread carefully". These terms are not meant to say one ship is better than the other from a moral standpoint. Instead, it's to indicate to others that you have a strong preference. You're going to love your OTPs regardless of what arguments others throw at you to convince you to not love them. You will probably be very annoyed by your NOTPs regardless of what others try to do to convince you that they're actually cute/sexy/hot/perfect for each other. And what the ACOTAR fandom could benefit from, from readopting OTP/NOTP language, is having a common understanding where different shipping communities boundaries are and how they can better utilize those boundaries to prevent constant fighting. Now, ship wars are inevitable because of how people see their OTPs and NOTPs, but general rule of thumb is - don't engage with your NOTP's content for your own mental sanity.

Multishipping

Multishipping can be used in many ways. Some people use it to say, hey I'm in this fandom, and I ship a lot of couples. But the origins of multishipping as a term, comes from ship war discourse in other fandoms. Multishippers generally are people who ship one character with multiple other characters. For example, if you ship Elain/Lucien, Elain/Azriel, Elain/Gwyn, Elain/Tamlin, etc etc etc, you are a multishipper. I generally would not consider someone a multishipper if all of their ships do not cross streams. It just sort of means that you ship a lot of couples. Which tends to be normal for romance series with a lot of couples. Maybe not a single of those couples is your true OTP, and that's what you mean by saying you're a multishipper. And that's okay. I think though that multishipping generally in other fan spaces is a marker of you telling others that you don't draw harsh lines with who you see characters with. I often see multishippers not declaring NOTPs. It's kind of a state of how you go about shipping often. I, for one, identify as an OTP shipper. I've never really multishipped. But I also have a very strict standard of what I call my "ships". Anyways, this is to say, this term has a lot of uses. And sometimes it can be confusing which of these uses a person means when they say it.

Slash shipping 

I've seen over the years that slash as a terminology has fallen out of favor. In the past, slash shipping was the pinnacle of shipping in fandoms. The term slash comes from the first modern fanon ship, Kirk/Spock, where the / between their names, which we now all know and use to indicate a romantic pairing (note: & is used to indicate a platonic interaction between characters), exists because the Kirk/Spock shipping community really were the originators of shipping communities creating fan content and sharing it in with each other in a massive way. In general slash (and femslash) is an important modifier of shipping because it explicitly tells you that this is a queer ship which often were not mainstream and considered canon until more recently. With the rise of canonical queer ships, I think the subversiveness of shipping queer couples has lost it's edge, therefore slash is not needed as much anymore to directly state the nature of your ship.

I wanted to keep this in the post though, because I think it's incredibly important history for ALL ACOTAR fans to understand. Shipping queer couples, and especially shipping FANON queer couples, has always been the backbone of fandom. Kirk/Spock walked so Destiel could fly. These are all queer ships that have strong fanon roots (and that fanon has had impacts on their canon) and have shaped fandom and your concept of shipping and romance tropes in inextricable ways. You don't have / without Kirk/Spock. You don't have Omegaverse, without gay shipping within the Supernatural fandom. And I wanted to make this point because this fandom has a strong het (heterosexual) ship bias. Which is okay. It's a romance series with a lot of heterosexual canon couples. But, I think because of that, many people are not entering this fandom with an understanding that people shipping queer fanon couples have been the ones who were the originators of many fandom terms that we have come to know and use today.

Conclusion:

I hope you all found this informative and that you can take away something from this post that can help you have better interactions and ability to communicate with others in this fandom. Again, I want to stress, that this is heavily influenced by my own 25 years of experience being in fandoms. And I haven't seen it all. Others will have different interpretations of these terms and experiences using these terms. So, feel free to add on anything that you think would be helpful to those in the ACOTAR community to better understand how to "ship and let ship". I do think that ship war are inevitable and not necessarily a bad thing. But using the right terms can help you engage in a more respectful way within ship war discourse.

Just realized I can talk about my AUs on here so here is the most deranged swap au known to man

J swaps with Tessa

And Cyn swaps with the Absolute Solver

The solver as a drone isn't here but I'm gonna brief yall on a couple more characters before revealing Cyn's deal to build suspense.

When Tessa rose again as a zombie drone, she was badly hurt, and would have died again in days had Jade Elliot not saved her. She became obsessed with her rebirth and sought to understand the secrets of life and death, especially how they affected drones (she's so victor Frankenstein coded I love her).

This journey took her to a scrapyard where she met a runway drone who had modified herself with the trash there: Uzi (she was swapped with Alice in an early version of the au, so some remnants of that linger). Uzi has digitigrade legs, toe beans, purely cosmetic bug antenna, and IR and night vision. She's also kinda rusty. (Also uzi in this au takes some inspiration from @solroskajan's Rebel Or Runaway au go check her stuff out it's awesome.) The two engineers quickly become friends, and eventually Tessa brings N and V to meet Uzi. V falls in love at first sight, and immediately panics bc she doesn't want to be disloyal to N, who she hasn't even confessed to yet. Eventual Envuzi bc its my otp/ot3. Anyway back to crimes against nature.

Tessa is just as into the occult as in canon, so she's trying to summon demons and shit (with Uzi's help of course). Eventually she succeeds (and nearly disintegrates into a pile of rust in the process) and gives an entity known as The Ultimate Parasite a physical form.

The Parasite of the Ultimate Fertilizer, The Rot, The Inevitable Dawn: Cyn (she/it pronouns as is my general headcanon for her)(yes im projecting) is an eldritch goddess of death, time, and rebirth. She is based around the idea that destruction is just transformation and thus, is creation. Predation, parasitism, rot; smashing a statue with a hammer creates a pile of dust as surely as sculpting creates a statue. It has a fungal and parasitic wasp motif, and is, well, about the way you'd expect an eldritch goddess of time to act. She's distant, she's seen thousands of civilizations rise and fall and it Knows that everything is temporary, knows it surer than it knows anything else. Needless to say, having a conversation with it usually results in existential dread. If anyone draws her I would die (in a good way). All that's set for her appearance it's that it is Mushroom and has wasp mandibles.

Oh also I forgot to mention that Jade still does her buzzword gimmick from canon but sarcastically. Goodness she's so sarcastic.

Asks welcome, and to finish off here's all my AUs listed from least to most self-explanatory: Cyn-tinal, Sibling Swap, Pokemon!AU, N kills Yeva

what happens when you meet a girl that matt doesn't like

being a black girl in la isn't easy especially when you don't fit into the 'norms' until one night Tara had invited you and nick a club called karma your wherein a short black dress with matching black chunky boots " hey Tara how you been" you say hugging her "OMG HII GUYS"

i laughed at tars drunk words tara and nick are now talking you try to engage in the conversation but there isnt much you can add not being a influencer all you do is post music not doing many clabs and friendships never really worked out for you

"imma go get som to drink ill be back" you walk to the bar and order a vod soda hoping the liquor will help you socialize waiting for the drink you notice another black girl with long godness braids siting by herself "your braids are so cute" i said smiling she turned around "thank you i did them myself"

as she turned you got to see what she looked like (can we just do lotto if she wasn't famous) we hit it off very well her name is sugar 20 and is from Chicago so she understands how it feels as we were talking for about an hour matt sent me a text that he was here to pick up me and nick

"girl im sorry but i got to go my nigga is here " i said kinda sad that i had to leave her "its ok can i get your number " you gave her your number walking away to go to matts car with a little more happiness in your step "matt guess what" you asked him as you put on your seat belt giving him a kiss as well

"what's up" he said rising an eyebrow as nick got into the car and he drove off" i met this girl her name is sugar she is 20 and from Chicago" you were smiling a little harder than usual "matt was happy that you were finding friends he didn't mind sharing his friends with you but could tell that you didn't click with them the way he had hoped for

" that's nice baby" he smiled "no no there's more she's black also finally someone i can relate to" your unusual happiness clicked to him now understanding why you were so happy "wait but what about Quin i thought you could relate to her" you loved quin but she was from la and was and a influencer so there were still things she didn't understand

"matt just because she black doesn't mean she fully understand me" you smiled "oh no i understand" matt kinda felt bad but "your right we do get along and she gets me sometimes but this girl is different she isnt in the spot light and i like that everyone is so worried about how they will look but she don't care" as the car ride went on the more you talked exited to find a la friend

as the week went on you and sugar became amazing friends always out or otp she was very outgoing loved partying shopping and all the above today she had asked if you wanted to go shopping and duhh now you geting ready puting low waisted baggy jeans a black crop top and convers you walk out the bathroom after finishing your makeup

matt siting on his gaming chair turned to you "hi sweetheart where you " you looked at yourself in the full body mirror matt had in his room putting your lip combo and gloss on "me and sugar are going to the mall" you said turning to him "how do i look" he rolled his chair Infront of you rubbing the back of your thighs

"baby you sure you're not hanging out with her too much i mean you've only known her for about a week and you've hung out with her almost every day snice" rolling your eyes at him matt "it's better than rotting in your room every day" he let out a sigh i know i just don't want you getting hurt" my phone goes off and it's a text from sugar Shes here baby i got to go love you say kissing him and walking out

once yall got to the mall and started shopping for tops flipping though the racks the topic of matt came up wait so what's his name you smiled at the thought of matt "his names matt and he's 21 an-" "ouhh you got a older man" she said poking your stomach "i bet he takes real good care of you" you smile "yeah i guess"

we go to check out "oh shit" you said as realize you left your wallet at home what's wrong sugar asked "i left my wallet at home" you responded slapping your forehead" its ok i got you" she said going to pay but you pulled her arm back "no its fine i have matts card on apple pay but thank you" you used matts apple pay as you both walked out

you went to text matt that you had used his card but when you opened the text "wait you have his apple pay" she said drawing you attend away from the text on yeah," it's for times like this" as i shut my phone off we walked into the next store marc Jacobs you saw these chunky boots like the ones Tara had omg these are so cute you said to sugar as she turned around ahh yes you have to get them

you looked down at the price tag 600 dollars you said eyes almost popping out your head you go to put them back down no no sugar grabbed your arm just get them why you acting like you got no money" you sigh looking down at the boots then back at the tag "but i don't wanna put it on matts card" "girl hes rich to hes not gon care" you contemplating it "well he did say i could use it for whatever" sugar smiles at you as you walk wall leave marc jacobs boots in bag

as you two keep shopping you keep feeling like she wants you spend money on matts card like when you two had went into winsor because you felt like you didn't have any dresses for when you would go out you tried on a black long dress with glitter and a long slit but couldn't pick between the black and red "y/n just get both they look cute" you look at the tag "sugar they 60 each no way" sugar sighed with a kinda annoyed tone "just get them matt said it's for when every he won't be mad" after more convincing you left the store with both dresses

and the same thing happened at true religion, but you didn't want to lose sugar you pushed the thought away maybe she just wants you to spoil yourself you got home, and she dropped you off when you waked into matts room you put the bag down thinking you had sent the text earlier you didn't bring up his card what you get he asked you showed him some of the stuff putting it away

30 minutes later you were on matts bed on your phone when he walked in "y/n" " mhmm" you said not looking up from your phone "did you use my card today" your eyes shot up forgetting about that "oh yeah i texted you" you respond nervus at his response "no you didnt you spent almost 2,000" youu shot up from his bed not relizing thats how much you spent" what! matt no way"

he walks over showing the bank statements "oh my goodness i didn't even realize sugar was just telling me you wouldn't mind and i guess i just got carried away ill cash app you back righ-" matt sighed "no its fine i gave you the apple pay for a reason" as you went to apologies again you got a facetime from sugar you answered it "hey bitch what you doing" i lifted the camera so she could see i was talking to matt who's that she said mugging the camera realizing you never showed her what matt looked like now he is mugged her as well

"that's matt" you said kinda awkward "oh that what he looks like" sugar said "matt now side eyeing us i was just expecting something else..." before i could answer matt answered "so what where you expecting" his mattatude coming out now holding the phone sugar smirking "i don't know just when shake yo dreads by sexy red came on in the club y/n sang pretty hard and if i Rember correctly she said she love her dark skin dread heads"

the same smirk that she held when she told me to use matts card but before you can think about it to hard matt hangs up tossing it on the bed and walks out

oh my days thats to much for me to type im done ill probably make a part two tell me what you wanna see in part two if yall even want one idk i feel like this was unnecessarily long but i literally came up with this idea and did it with in like 3 hours so im tired and also divider from @bernardsbendystraws

NOTP of all time?

Least favorite straight or male/female ship/s?

Least favorite mlm or gay ship/s? 13 Least favorite wlw or sapphic ship/s?

Thy crackships? List them all

**thee can include ships that are of the books or of your own mind. thy hopes thee does not find thy ask annoying

First of all, I love the dedication to the bit??? I don't know how the thee and thys of Old English but you gave me a chuckle XD

(No way will this annoy me. In fact, I will take pleasure in answering this ^^)

OTP of all time? - Zeus/He- *hands you your 20 dollars*

Thy favorite straight or male/female ship/s? - For human ships, it's Menelaus/Helen and Orpheus/Eurydice. For godly ships it's Zeus/Hera and Poseidon/Medusa. All rotate my mind like clockwork. I also love the married godly couples and Ares/Aphrodite.

Thy favorite mlm or gay ship/s? - ORESTES/PYLADES ORESTES/PYLADES SUPREMACY 🗣🗣🗣 Sometimes Patroclus/Achilles. Poseidon/Nerites. (Ares/Hermes for non canon)

Thy favorite wlw or sapphic ship/s? Oh, this is hard... I only have non-canon ones like Metis/Hera, Demeter/Leto, and Eileithyia/Clotho.

Thy ship/s thee likes to analyze but not ship as endgame? (any type) - oh AGAMEMNON/CLYTEMNESTRA takes the cake for that for sure. Their house is so rotten, their kids dead or depressed and their marriage in RUINS but once upon a time everything was okay, and that is what makes it hurt more. Other ships include Rhea/Cronus and maaaybe Apollo/Cassandra.

Thy favorite doomed ship/s? - Orpheus/Eurydice, Hades/Leuke :(

Thy favorite toxic ship/s? - Zeus/Hera, Rhea/Cronus, a bit of Pentheus/Dionysus too hehe.

Thy favorite exes-ship/s? - Poseidon/Pelops, Zeus/Themis, Diomedes/Odysseus (last one is exes best friends and fwbs to me.)

Thy favorite platonic ship/s? (any type) - HECTOR&HELEN AND ODYSSEUS&MENELAUS LETS GO!!! Also, I love the whole brotherhood between the Achean soldiers, yes even including Agamemnon. The Kronides (especially Zeus&Hades and Hera&Poseidon) and the younger Olympians' relationship with each other (too long to add. Its a lot.)

Thy favorite OT3/poly ship/s (any type) - Zeus/Hera/Metis (past) or Zeus/Hera/Prometheus (present but in a Kaos show AU way where Prometheus and Hera are both stressfully dealing with Zeus' shit 100% of the time. Not sure if It's a V-relationship or a whole poly ship but it's fun to imagine).

NOTP of all time? - probably Zeus/Leto or Semele (no hate to shippers).

Least favorite straight or male/female ship/s? - Paris/Helen (again, no hate to the shippers. A matter of preference and I find the influence of Aphrodite/the gods in their relationship way more fascinating than the pairing itself. They're very Curses by Crane Wives coded. In a way they also fit No.5 of your asks lol). Also Hephaestus/Aphrodite and Poseidon/Amphitrite. In a way.

Least favorite mlm or gay ship/s? My mind is blank, my least favorite is Zeus/Ganymede but I'm honestly neutral-positive with the interpretations of Ganymede as an adult.

Least favorite wlw or sapphic ship/s? Medusa/Athena for sure. Eradicate that ship.

Thy crackships? List them all - Hmmm I already mentioned some in No.4... Would love to see Medea/Oenone, Hermione/Electra, and some iteration of Ares/Thanatos/Hermes too. That's all I can think of for now

Mandela Worldbuilding Shit I'd like everyone to consider

Preschool teachers watching their class size dwindle down until there's only a few kids left

Parents trying to explain to their child whats going on in the world, unable to even comprehend it themselves

Children growing up not knowing they're an alternate Adam and ESPECIALLY Sarah

Going to school and all of a sudden, your best friend stops showing up

Having a long distance friendships/relationship with someone in Mandela and theyre telling you all the wack ass shit going on there

People being too scared to leave their house, meaning their too scared to work-- empty and shut down businesses everywhere you look like theme parks, stadiums, restaurants, etc

The light traffic due to the lack of people there and leaving their house

Going to work because you need the money with the possibility something will follow you home

Stray dogs/other pets roaming the streets because their owner was replaced or died

Dogs/pets licking their owner's hand or face, knowing something is wrong with them, but unable to comprehend that they're dead

Dogs biting the absolute shit out of one and they let out a cartoonish "YEEEOUCHHHH" like take that Cesar :)

911 calls made by children whose parents suddenly disappeared or died Thatcher

Alternates disguising as kids (or regular people) calling 911 to lore in officers Jude

I've said this before and I'll gladly say it again- how do we know that population count consists of ONLY humans? It could be so much lower than it actually it

Being high on hallucinogens and seeing The Fucker Man In The Corner Jonah

Everyone who thought that excessive prayer would help Mark

Everyone who thought "oh it'll just last a few months, everything will be fine ^_^ "

Becoming numb to messages like "Where's our savior now?" graffitied on a building and scrubbing them off without second though

Skyrocking prices for antidepressants and therapy, but no one can afford them because no one can work

Laying in your bed/going on about your day until you suddenly hear a gunshot

Priests and other religious figures contracting MAD and questioning their faith

The entirety of Skinamarink could take place in Mandela. Imagine an alternate fucking with a child just like that, and the alternate taking joy in their fear. No one would be able to stop it.

TMC OUTSIDE OF CHRISTIANITY/ABRAHAMIC RELIGIONS! PAGANISM! JUDAISM! LUCIFERIANISM! ANYTHING! PLS GUYS IM BEGGING YOU DO IT OR I WILL BRING IN MY OCS👺👺👺

Kids going to live with someone else because their parent is dead.

Adoption centers being a heavy target for alternates

"My mom's dead." becomes a common response to 'yo mama' jokes😔

TMC OTP/Brotp/etc Ideas

Couples helping each other shave/do make up because they can't use the mirror

Sharing a bed because you're scared

"Call me when you're home"

Coming up with a code word so you know it's actually them

The overwhelming joy when they confirm *its actually them*

Moving in with someone for safety reasons

Traveling in pairs

As the @thelovelybookworm doing this and I loved the concept so I’m doing this for this blog. It want easy narrowing things down but here it is.

1. Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark ( A song of ice and Fire, George R.R. Martin )

If you follow me you saw this one coming from hey are my ultimate OTP have always been and probably will always be. Finding love in hopeless places is one things I’m very inclined to.

2. Viola and Duke Orsino ( Twelfth Night, Or What You Will, William Shakespeare )

I’m not a massive Shakespeare buff but these to ring my bell a lot. It’s the trans allegory, its the melancholic deeply bisexual man, and a deeply non binary person that make a very good duo! I think you can already see a pattern here.

3. Aragon and Éowyn ( Lord of the Rings, J.R.R. Tolkien )

Here me out I know it’s fanon, and I know most purists of Tolkien will think it heretic but I love these two and their dynamic ! And yes I think they should’ve end up together. Aragon sees Éowyn and doesn’t think she should be lady like to be worthy of his respect! And the fact that Aragorn is the most badass man in the Middle-earth also helps.

4. Zuko x Katara ( Avatar : The last Air Bender )

The OG ship of ships, my OG OTP, they are still my shit and yes I’m still bitter about it. It’s the Fire and Water, opposites attract that always made me love their dynamic oh my so much. They are what I want to have in life! His redemption arc to me was Ken got he best parts of the show and I’m sad that new generations won’t know what is was like with them !

[nicegaai]

im attempting my fic reread today. im announcing this bc i will be liveblogging to keep my morale up, NOT THAT anyone cares but i personally need this, like ill only commit to do the thing if theres an imaginary audience holding me accountable. & i like to have fun :3

anyway. captains log, its a beautiful sunny july weekend. i just finished my morning coffee, and, i am dreading this so much. i dont like rereading my own writing but i shall get over it. ok here we go.

Þetta Reddast vagueblogged directors commentary edition

Ch 1:

*opens fic and starts convulsing immediately* god i wish i smoked weed rn. i cannot chill out ever for the life of me

My Mission For Today Is: to remember what plot threads I’ve left hanging so I can resolve this story properly. And also try n remember where the flow is going. I have the end plotted out, I just am a little lost … it’s been a while :-(

------------

Abrupt beginning!!!! I’m not mad because I have . I HAD. Almost no writing experience when I started this. it isn’t ideal but I refuse to be one of those fanfic writers that starts rewriting early chapters without finishing the last ones. Ive never seen one of those types actually finish a longfic. …I’d already rather yap than actually read LMAO AHH

Oh this is worse than I remember. thats cool that s great ok alright *coughs up blood*

"20 somethings" WOW I really did not know where I was going with this when I started huh

LKJSDLKSJDLGKGDJSLDGJK ??? Who authorized this. Who let me cook. What the hell

I could write this better now. I could edit this into something beautiful. <- devil on my shoulder

FORGOT I WAS MAKING RICE BRB

"generously offered nothing to the exchange." wait STOPPPP. I’m so funny

GRAMMAR ERROR DETECTED why is there two periods. I’ll be coming back to fix that …………………. :-(((

Fuck. This is a lot. Marge Simpson Hiding Her Face dot Png

Oh this is stupid this is gayyy this is fukcinnn . Who fucking did t his. What was wrong with me,. This is so good actually. what was i ONNNN. 

Im gonna throw up and I don’t know if thats like/. A complimentary thing or if im just cringing that hard . Im feeling emotions. I love my OTPs..OT3~5? I love them so so much

Ok as much as im like “eww bad writing” this is .. dare I say, rly good in places. Not to suck my own dick but maybe all hope isnt lost and imposter syndrome is an illusion

Grammar mistake #2. Goddddddd. they should ban me from the archive for this

EMILLLLL EMIL EMIL EMIL HIIIIII BABYYYY EMILLL I LOVE UUUU AWWHUUGHH everyone clap for my bewoved baby bruvver right FUCKING now

Urghhh gritting my teeth… Im fully expecting the flow of events to start not making any gd sense. There’s no way this came together the way I hoped in my head and .... For real I was never able to read this all the way thru. this is my first time, lol. and it was all disjointed on the authorial end to say the least. Im scared T-T

Jlxjvklsdkjfsjlkdkjlsjklkljzsdkjlgaskljdgjklasljkgdljkasljkdgjklasjlkdgljkaskljdgjakl?????????? 

Im not liking the ratio of dialogue to whatever the other stuff is. scene-setting I guess. prose maybe. i could have dragged this out way longer... By which I mean made it a more satisfying read. But WHATEVER !!!! 

TIMO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TIMOOOOOOOOOO NUMERO UNOOOO DO MUNDOOOOOO I really need to utilize him more. As soon as I finish this fic I need to write a Timo POV spinoff where he gets cancelled on furry twitter for proshipping in real life

Hmmmm chapter ending didn’t hit as hard in practice as it did in drafts. Oh well. God damn that was a lot to happen in one chapter LMAOO???

OH SHIT MY RICE IS STILL COOKING —— 

[crescentlyautumn]

Vegas?? 👀

How’d I know I’d get the man who burrowed deep into my brain and made a home for himself? 🤣

Alright, you asked for it. The break down:

How I feel about this character:

Do you have all day? Because-

Ok, but seriously, my love for this man stretches beyond anything I can rightly describe. I think I’m absolutely normal about him, and then bam! Instant punch to the throat because my brain thought too much about him too hard. He’s so complicated, messy, and destructive (mostly to himself), and yet he also is the personification of a stray cat caught in the rain that you approach to try and help, and end up with a nasty scratch, but once the hissing and spitting dies down, that cat is attached to you like glue and thinks you’re its world.

And if that’s not something I have a terrible soft spot for. Like does he do stuff that irl that would make me run for the hills? Oh absolutely. But I’m also so pulled in by all his layers and hidden bits, not to mention I see a little bit of myself in him when he finally lets his guard down and allows himself to love and feel openly. This man makes me so emotional and I could go on for hours, so I’m gonna stop myself here.

All the people I ship romantically with this character:

Ok, I’m gonna be real with you here and drop Pete as my end all be all with him. Boring? Sure. But that’s all my brain will truly let me accept.

BUT that being said, I have seen him shipped with Tay and didn’t get squicked out to the max, soooo…👀

But yes, I am that person who latched onto the canon ship and not much else. For shame😔

My non-romantic OTP for this character:

… Well fuck. Ok, I wanna say two people, but I will go with who I think more so is it, and say Porsche. I have read too many fics that point out how well those two got along before shit hit, and how much they can lean on and understand each other, and it’s burrowed deep into the wrinkles in my brain, so yes. Platonic OTP for Vegas is Porsche.

My unpopular opinion about this character:

Do I dare?…

Fuck it.

Vegas is demiromantic. I have actually gotten people pretty mad at me for this one, but just looking at the whole safe house thing and Vegas as a character, makes me unable to unsee it. (If you want me to break this down more, feel free to ask because I have many thoughts.)

One thing I wish would happen/had happened with this character in canon:

WE GOT MORE FUCKING TIME WITH HIM!!!

I wish we could’ve gotten a better glimpse of him in the show before everything and after. Not just little tastes and lots of speculation. Just more firm ground to stand on (at least series-wise) and more information on who Vegas is, and not just the masks we were shown. We got little crumbs, and I hunger for more!!!

Thank you for the ask, friend! Love ya!🫂♥️

2, 8, 15, 18, 19, 23, and 26 for akashi as requested!!!

AAAAAAAAA OKAY OKAY OKAY I'M SO READY FOR THIS I WILL WRITE PARAGRAPHS

────────── ♛ ──────────

2. What is your favorite canon thing about this character?

There's actually like so many things I love about him OMFG. Okay but maybe one of my favorites is that he's literally just a baby. I'm talking about the fact that he has to keep up appearances BUT what he really wants is just to have fun with his friends and to be approachable to people. I love dualities like that when it comes to villains especially, cuz you realize that Akashi's just human and all he wants are basic human things like being happy despite the lengths that he has to go through to keep himself together.

8. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you despise?

When they write him ooc obviously LMFAO. And when they villanize him too much. Like he's just a little baby :( he just broken and he just needs some love. Oh and when they ship him with Momoi or Sakurai. Puke.

15. What's your favorite ship for this character? (Doesn't matter if it's canon or not.)

Well aside from Akashi x Sevonne (me), I have two. A few years ago I would have said AkaKuro, because obviously it just makes so much mf sense?? They were my otp back then. But right now I think my main favorite ship is MidoAka. They're best friends, they're very close and they both enjoy a lot of things together and they both are rich kinda so yeah I definitely MidoAka.

18. How about a relationship they have in canon with another character that you admire?

Maybe Akashi's friendship with Kuroko. I remember that one scene in the manga Extra Game where Akashi warns the team that he might have to whip out his lil brother in the middle of a game and tells them not to be scared. The rest of the GOM was like "oh thats it? Can I leave now?" but Kuroko says to Akashi "Akashi-kun is Akashi-kun." I love it when they actually mf humanize Akashi because he's actually mf human even though he's always depicted as this perfect human.

19. How about a relationship they have in canon that you don't like?

Do you have to ask? Akashi Seijuro and Akashi Masaomi. I need Masaomi to literally be less of a piece of shit.

23. Favorite picture of this character?

WHAT THE FUCK THIS QUESTION CAUGHT ME OFF GUARD

theres so many pictures of Akashi that I absolutely adore I cant just choose one so im putting many anyways here you go:

its crazy looking at my akashi folder and wanting to put every single picture of him on this post ummmm

oh my fucking god I love this man so much he's just so pretty and he's so precious honestly y'all do not understand how much I love him

26. What's something the character has done you can't get over? Be it something funny, bad, good, serious, whatever?

I will 200% NEVER EVER get over the fact that Akashi Seijuro dressed up as little red riding hood in a Teiko Festival and he wasn't even embarassed. This man is so secure in his masculinity that he just willingly wore that red hood with the puffy skirt. I love this man hes amazing.
